Personification is a literary device where human qualities are given to non-human things—like objects, animals, or ideas.

✅ Definition:

Personification is when something non-human is described as if it has human traits, feelings, or actions.


✨ Example:

“The wind whispered through the trees.”
Here, the wind (a non-human thing) is described as whispering, which is a human action.
